Sigur RóS - Gobbledigook

The filming of “Gobbledigook” marks the fourth collaboration between Arni & Kinski and Sigur Rós. The results are superb for a video that will undoubtedly Not be screened on mainstream television.

The work they have created together carries a sense of freedom and love, but with “Gobbledigook,” Sigur Rós’ first single off their new album, the video takes the words freedom and love to a new plateau of expression. From conceptualization on, this project has been like nothing this team has produced before. The visual inspiration for this piece came from photographer Ryan McGinley. A cast and crew was assembled. Key elements included Christopher Doyle, the Director of Photography who is best known for his collaboration with Wong Kar-Wai for the film In the Mood for Love (Currently directing his latest film, Izolator). Arni & Kinski also had the great opportunity to work with Hank Corwin, an editor who has worked with directors such as Oliver Stone, Terrence Mallick and Barry Levinson amongst others.

The video appears in full on the Dvd in this issue.
